hard to fathom but documented truth?
Sad though it is, man has seldom had much trouble killing his youngest fellows. If the ancient Spartans perceived any imperfection in a child, for instance, they would "expose" him, which amounted to leaving the child somewhere, perhaps a hillside, to die. Of course, while not all civilizations held their offspring to the strict standards of the Spartans, infanticide was common in the pagan world. Despite this, it's hard to imagine an ancient society that murdered its young on the magnitude of the modern world with its abortion-on-demand culture. And in this modern world, the culture of death is nowhere more intense than in Russia.
This is one of the facts we learn in the DVD documentary Killing Girls, a work about the lives of Russian women and, something that occurs all too often, the deaths of their unborn children. The documentary presents the stories of Anna Sirota, the narrator of the work, and three girls, Valya, 15; Nastja, 17; and Sasha, 16; all of whom had abortions. It also features the Family and Reproduction Center (such places are always euphemistically named, aren't they?) in St. Petersburg, Russia, which offers late-term abortions to teenage girls.
While these women's stories are tragic, more tragic still is that they're far from unusual. Killing Girls tells us that, staggeringly, 80 percent of Russian women have between two and 10 abortions each......
